While in Victoria, you must play Highland Pacific. This wonderful layout is the is the newest gem on the golfing map. The Highland Nine opened for play in early June 2010. While the Pacific Nine opened about one year earlier. The layout of the course is what makes this a terrific challenge for all golfers, regardless of ability.

But be forewarned, once you play the course, you will be tempted to try it again, just to have a second crack at one very interesting and really challenging eighteen holes of play.

The vision for this golfing gem dates back to 1961, when Herb Plasterer had a golfing vision for the 190 acres. Despite Herb's passing in 1985, that commitment to maintain a user-friendly greenspace was carried on by his family. The course, clubhouse and driving range has been eight years in the making. That dream became reality in late 2008 with the first nine holes open for play followed by the June 2010 opening of the second nine.

Rocks- lakes - trees! Rocks - lakes - trees! Tee boxes - greens! Tee boxes - greens! Wide open, undulating fairways are what you will find nested among this remote feeling layout. Also get ready for elevation changes .Whether it's your tee box or the green you approach, it seems like you are constantly having to take into account the elevation change to accommodate a club less or a club more.

On the Pacific Nine two holes present an exceptional challenge. Numbers six and seven are back-to-back not long, but certainly testy. Number six has a sharp dog leg right to a sharply elevated green and seven may really fool you. It's a short par four, but placing your tee shot and second shot will test you. Once on the seventh green, two putts would certainly be welcomed.

On the Highland Nine, the exceptional holes are numbers; two, four, five, six and nine. The approach to each of these holes is what testing. Number five may be the hardest hole on the course if you happen to stray to the right side of the hole. The double dogleg 6th is one of the finest holes you will ever find. Follow the instructions on your score card as to shot placement.

One other perhaps helpful hint - think twice about hitting driver on the par fours. You are much better off to try and shape your shot to a good location, than to blast away.

Highland Pacific has an outstanding practice are/driving range featuring 44 stalls. There's a fully stocked pro shop and restaurant. To sharpen your game, you can call on three CPGA certified instructors - Doug Hastie, Jung Mi Ji and Mark Callan.

One thing is almost certain, play this course once, and you will come back time and again.
